you will benefit BIGTIME from a nice sized converter... even the off the shelf mild cams should be used with at least a 3000 stall converter. I'd recommend a 3600+ for you.

it drives pretty good actually the only difference from driving like stock is that when u slow to a stop the car like feels as if it wants to go forward or push through the brakes but it doesn't die or anything. when u step on it it feels like a stock ta until it hits 4000 rpms then it feels like u hit a 100 shot of nitrous!! the car is a beast on 30 roll races!!

Great numbers for cam only a4 with LS1 Intake.

My brother had TR T-rex with stock stall the car drove around fine and great I bet you with MS4 Its even better.
Also have friend MS4 PRC Heads with stock stall the car is Beast.
Dyno numbers very soon.

Slow-ws6 get LS6 Intake and port your stock TB You may get 400rwhp
Good luck.

I only dyno'ed 383 rwhp with the MS4 and a fast 90/90 so I say you are ahead of the game. I have a 3500 stall though. took it to the track last night and got a 7.78 @ 90.

no offense but whats up with the guys putting huge cams on stock verters. I bet you would get faster down the track with just bolt ons and a stall then you would with just a huge cam and a stock stall.
